The DPA was asked by a hospital if it can provide an employee with data on which of its other employees are processing health data, as well as when and how they are processing such data. The DPA held that under its current practice, it is not possible under Article 15 GDPR to obtain information about specific individuals who have processed personal data within the controller. This applies irrespective of the fact: - that the person is employed by a controller, - which systems and collections the employee has accessed, and - whether the access was lawful or unlawful.
Outcome
Violation Found
The DPA found a violation but did not impose a fine.
